The Miscarriage Association helps by providing information and support when it’s most needed so I've signed up for this run in the hope that it raises awareness and makes a difference in supporting a truly important charity and all its amazing work. 

Income from event sponsorship makes up more than a quarter of the M.A.’s £200,000 annual core budget, so every penny of your sponsorship will really make a difference. What’s more, if you are a UK taxpayer and Gift Aid whatever you give, you’re adding another 25% to the charity without it costing you a thing.

Take a look at the figures and see what your money can do:

£5 pays for sending out a pack of 4 information leaflets on miscarriage facts and feelings

£17 pays for helpline support and a leaflet pack for one person

£20 covers the cost of sending leaflet packs to four people

£50 will staff the helpline for an hour (responding to 2 to 5 requests for help)

£100 pays for two hours’ work on our social media platforms, reaching out to people affected by pregnancy loss.

£250 pays for printing 2,000 posters for display in hospitals, GP surgeries and libraries.

£500 contributes to the cost of developing online training resources for NHS staff caring for miscarriage patients

This is not a comfortable subject for most of us to talk about, which can leave people feeling even more alone and confused - I don't want this to be the case. The miscarriage association are there to support and guide people through the darkest of times and by doing this run I hope they gain some recognition for their dedicated work and hopefully raise some money to help them do it!

It's certainly going to be a challenge but this is such an important cause and I am going to fight  that voice in my head that says I can't do this because I'm not a sporty person!! I WILL get there on the 27th May 2017!!!

Thank you so much for your support x
